TRUSTe sealholder eLOAN conducted A/B testing with Offermatica, a leading online business optimization organization, to optimize their Auto Refinance Loan Application Web pages. The following factors were taken into consideration when deciding which elements and pages were to be tested; location and visibility of trust seals, points of information collection and pages that were “selling” the brand. Different recipes were created and tested against each other to determine which elements led consumers to complete applications. The TRUSTe Web Privacy Seal had a significant impact on conversions, increasing the value of privacy for eLOAN. Testing showed that: •
The TRUSTe logo alone provided a 3-5% bump in application conversions.
•
Estimated increase of $1 million in revenue annually on Auto Refinance Loan Applications.
